Yes, and that doesn't change anything.  I'm still seeing
twice-secondly refreshes.  (In GNOME, on debian unstable, if that's
important).

I cut my .emacs down to just 2 lines:

  (setq load-path (cons "~/emacs/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m/" load-path))
  (require 'w3m-load)

and the refreshes still happen twice per second.

It seems that freedesktop.org is down at the moment, so I found
another page with large images:

  http://imagecomics.com/blog.php

Interestingly, after I hit 'T' to load all images on this page, the
images take quite a while to finish loading.  Once the first big image
has downloaded and is displayed, and while the rest of the images are
still downloading, I can hit C-v and have it jump back many times per
second.  As soon as the other images have finished downloading,
however, it goes back to the 0.5 second timer.  My guess is that the
messages displayed in the message area while images are downloading is
what's causing the rapid refreshes during downloads.
